Elena “Ellie” Hinkle was born and raised in Colorado Springs and has had a passion for its history since she was very young. After completing her MLIS in Archives Management at Simmons University (Boston, MA) in 2021, she moved back to Colorado Springs in hopes of finding work in a local history institution. Little did she know that her dream job was awaiting her – and a few months later, she became the Director of History & Archives at the Union Printers’ Home! Ellie managed much of the initial cleanout and preservation of the artifacts found in the buildings on the property, and is now working to preserve and make available to the public the rich and fascinating history of this incredible property and institution.
